Creates an actor (goroutine, whatever), which spawns 10 new

million actors are created on the final level. Then, each of
them returns back its ordinal number (from 0 to 999999), which
are summed on the previous level and sent back upstream, until
reaching the root actor. (The answer should be 499999500000).

I Fibers aren't supposed to take any parameters how are we
supposed to pass values to it during creation?
Someone should really implement sth. along this line.
```d
size_t cumsum(Fiber!int fib, size_t val)
{
size_t sum = val;
foreach (i; 0 .. 10)
{
val = fib.yield(sum); // yield sum, get next val
sum += val;
}
return sum;
}
auto fib = fiber!func;
while (fib.state != Fiber.State.hold)
writeln(fib.call(random()));
```
There is
https://dlang.org/library/std/concurrency/generator.this.html,
but it's not too well designed, relying on an runtime type cast
in Fiber.yield which will fail if the yielded value isn't exactly
of the same specified as template parameter.
